#03. thread — * cersei lannister.

[muutosarchive]

what was the bloodline? not born a baratheon, nor a targaryen it is true. though royal as jungle kings, her father amassed a wealth so grand it toppled even the crown. &. now such is indebted to her lineage in amounts they could never hope to repay. her buffoon of a husband spending on luxuries unneeded as tournies to celebrate the name-day of every poor sod who happened to enter king robert's employ. there is no bloodline anymore. she has created a new one. yet, better a wolf is priscilla however than that of the nothern royalty.

any woman needing to dig their way from nothing, even when coming from the richest of households. she was just smart enough to take the things she learned, master them, &. use them to her advantage. keeping her heart out of it wherever possible. easier that way. yet, rues the idea that she could not fight, could not act as she'd wanted.

cersei had little a person that she could open to. priscilla was one of them. they truly understood each other. they understood what it was like to be cast aside. to be royal, &. to do what needs to be done. it breeds trust, despite not wanting to admit it. though her actions betray her, even in this moment. the freedom of her speech, the lacking of personal guard so close to her person. it felt good, in the same breath as it felt vulnerable. yet, knows she's found a true friend.

stand in the middle of stone, skirts brushing in their matching garments. sharing of colors. she would have made a fine lannister. perhaps in another life, they would have been true sisters.

soft chuckle wracks chest &. reveals sharp teeth in crooked smirk. freely indeed, as cersei had told him to his face many times. he knew her opinions. if not from her lips, than from jaime's. "of course." her hand gestures before once again meeting goblet. "i'd expect nothing less from you, lady priscilla." cersei continues. though her smile fades somewhat, chin lowered as soft wind carries golden silk at sides of her beautifully aged visage.

"power. but also the personal freedom." she lifts again. inhaling through her mouth. "though that seldom works out how we think it might." she smiles now politely, head tilting. eyes falling away a bit distantly. much is still forbidden, or decided for her. "even so, the protection is assuring. especially as a mother." cersei gives a nod.

queen turns towards the gardens &. begins to lead priscilla in a proper stroll. "did you know that i used to want to be a knight, like jaime? i used to watch him fight from the barrier. my septa would often have to come find me for lessons, but i would beg to stay." emeralds seek priscilla from a sideways glance.

wandering spirit, aiding others where possible. drawn to mothers scorned by the world, kindred spirits were they. a wolf and a lion, regal and divine. a pair scorned by men, in a world designed by them . . . [ we will flourish, we will conquer. ] . . . but cersei was a true master of the great game. a rightful queen, even if she were not born in the bloodline. adaptable as she was beautiful. standing by her side, on the tightrope of protection and destruction, able to discuss freely. without judgement from the other for her thoughts. as if she shared them, thoughts swirling within those green eyes of hers.

❛ an old fool and a foolish king, if i am to speak freely. ❜ no loyalty to any, a free spirit who lingered. even during the war, she took no side. aided the common folk and their injuries, whispering songs of old in their ears. but she knew to avoid angering nobles and royalty, lest she met their wrath. and the wrath of a lioness was one to be avoided . . . [ pity those who cross you and your pride. ] . . . crimson is her gown and her claws. index finger swirled the rim of her wine glass, eyes downcast to observe its contents. wine and gossip, this seemed to be their daily meeting. ❛ anyone can adapt to unfortunate situations yet you, your majesty, have excelled beyond that of others i have seen. ❜ a small pause, head nodding. ❛ what about being queen attracts you ? i can assume power certainly has its appeal. ❜

Cersei's cruelest act had no consequences

The 8th season of game of Thrones split viewers and some fans are now more critical of previous seasons of the fantasy hit. The authors increased the narrative pace more and more, which inevitably created gaps. These in turn offer a lot of discussion material after the end of the series.

User SBishop2014 is canceled Reddit a possible discrepancy that Cersei Lannisters (Lena Headey) resolute action against the Tyrells. In season 7, the mighty rose garden house was finally wiped out, but the queen in the meantime across the Seven Kingdoms never had to bear any noticeable consequences for this.

Cersei and the Tyrells: the biggest mistake in Game of Thrones?

The Tyrells from Game of Thrones were among the most important and richest dynasties in Westeros, but Cersei was the house at the latest with the marriage of

Margaery Tyrell (Natalie Dormer) and come a thorn in the eye. In season 6, she first blew up the septa, causing Maes, Loras and Margaery to die.

Game of Thrones: Margaery and Olenna Tyrell

Season 7 then took place Jaime Lannister Olenna Tyrell (Diana Rigg) a visit that accepted his “offer” to commit suicide. The house that over one of the

densely populated areas ruled by the whole of Westeros has since been wiped out, but the Lannisters and especially Cersei never had to pay for it.

In his contribution, SBishop2014 refers to the loyal flag bearers of Rosengarten and the people of the expanse who could have rebelled against Cersei, but did not. The series thus ignored a very obvious development. In fact, it looks as if the residents of Cersei's bloody campaign or the loss of the popular Tyrells are simply accepted. Said Reddit user calls this the “biggest action hole of the entire series”.

Game of Thrones: House Tyrell's Resistance

In the end, this gap may not be as gigantic as it seems at first glance. After the destruction of the septa, Olenna – the last remaining high-ranking Tyrell – joined Daenerys Targaryen in the fight against the Lannisters. This is definitely a form of resistance.

The user pantherpowell88 also points out that we just saw no battle for the rose garden against the Lannisters. However, this does not necessarily mean that the vastness of Cersei has easily been recognized as a queen. On top of that, he refers to Olenna's statement that the Tyrells are not known for their martial arts anyway.

Furthermore, Cersei described the attack on the septa as an accident, so he dismissed the blame directly. Although the credibility of the statement is publicly questioned, the great antagonist of the series demonstrated with the cruel deed what she is capable of. IrrawaddyWoman therefore assumes in the thread on Reddit that the vastness simply allowed it to be granted out of fear.
